Sometimes I think "how do people come up with crossover ideas it seems so random" and then I remember what my dreams are like.
My most recent dream was "me in a classroom (my dreams are almost always in some sort of school) full of chairs with featureless people on them except for one Jester who was talking about types of princess designs and then I brig up "how would a princess be based on sleeping" like thinking of sleep kirby with aa nightcap with a crown and the jester goes on "no no no thats to simple" not royal enough I guess
And suddenly Maleficent is behind a giant white curtain saying something (I can't remember it was probably taunting the jester) the jester is running along trying to catch malficent by opening the curtain but can't catch her. Then suddenly the jester says loudly "how can Sleeping Beauty be popularanyway when Mario only appears a for a quater of the film?!"
Suddenly its cuts to Me, Mario, Sleeping Beauty and the Jester(who now looks like princess Dasiy) running out of school halls large doors out into like a parking lot outside some shops and into a fancy car someone mentions Mario and Sleeping Beauty are getting married and then I wake up
I've had this dream twice. But the first time had miitopia characters instead in like a dnd setting and princess peach but specifically from the ds game with perry. And instead of exiting out to a car it just switched into the miitopia world. Like suddenly a completely different story and setting in the middle of a dream(this happens a lot)
A prompt I kept expecting but never really saw in oc-tober was: Videogame/media oc! But this is my own prompt list, so here! The game is Niche - a genetics survival game, by stray fawn studio!
Lavender and Saber! I made them before even buying the game
Blank.
Glittering lights dance across my mind.
Creating images I cannot see,
Creating words I cannot hear.
I try to reach out to them,
And grasp what the feel like,
And drag them down onto paper
But my pen doesn't meet the page.
My hand hovers above the keyboard,
The blank emptiness of white stares.
Taunting me with its endless potential.
That lays silently screaming in my head,
Waiting to burst out in streams of lines.
My pen collapses on the page,
Do I even remember 'the why'?
The original reason I'm here.
Staring at empty walls without purpose
No color or lines to fill their pointless space,
The glittering lights fade from my mind.

Here's my first draft (maybe last I tend to just stick to first ideas) for 3rd life Grian!
Fairly standard design, I didnt feel that the design needed to many details.
Only notable features are the feathers on his face and the hair thing (I think they are called cow lick or something) are meant to look like 3 hearts... the patches are Pizza, the Sun, And a poppy (weather this is for scars "can we still be friends?" Or for the alliance with Jimmy and Scott is up to interpretation)
Then again I thought 'cringe' meant "look at these cool artists" because the first few times I saw the word it was In "cringe comp" and I just thought 'wow pretty colors very cool'
I wasnt very smart. Im still not I just learned how to hide it with to many words. Anyway people should show their old art off more, like a proud parent for their childhood self.
Ive gotten compliment on my 'art style'. I honestly don't even know what my style is anymore. I draw what's easiest for me not what I would like it to look like but eh. Now the art I made in ~2012 however, that was the peak of my art. Oh how I long for those days. Just me and my lack of knowledge about anything ever
Anatomy? Cohesive design? Color theory?? BOO Boring! I want to go back and unlearn that stuff, I need to pack details! I need rule of cool I need to exist on the floor and draw and forget everything, USE THOSE BRIGHT CRAYONS! GIVE THEM 4 WINGS!! AND A TAIL MADE OF PLANTS WITH MAGIC FIRE ON THE END!!! BRING ME BACK TO THE OLD AND CRINGE
Unfortunately unlearning is very difficult so I'm stuck with thinking about things work >:(
(I say this like a joke but genuinely I do wish I never tried to improve and learn, because sure my art 'looks better' but it's less fun now I have to think about what I'm making. I wish I had spent a little longer just making things with no reason or purpose)
Really trying to force myself to make human(ish) oc design, but like... I can't. Like I'll draw a human character and be like where's the patterns? The extra features like horns and wings? Your telling me they got no claws? No tail? Like what's even the point!
(Or maybe... it's just that I can't draw/design clothes, and use all of the above to destract from that while still making a intresting design)
Useless fun fact about me is what got me into drawing animal characters at first was that as a child, I hated drawing human ears and nose.
(I see you in every reflection my dear) Forget-Me-Not
Inspired by various prompts: seconds before disaster, teeth, snake etc (big snake dragon about to bite + person how isn't reacting to this situation/doest know what's behind them)
Hope I did this correctly if u did below this is are the brighter color pallette test (well only one is bright but I'm not taking any risks here)
I couldnt decide which I liked more so here:
Fun fact: this isn't an oc this is my default/placeholder character who I use to test out ideas or composition.
Got artblock immediately after my last post >:(
But 8m back eith my second idea for limited life uh will I finish this idea or will this entire thing go into the forever abandoned projects who knows, plan currently is just to work on this in-between my personal art (which I might start posting here idk yet)
Allay because... reasons yep I remember them yep
And first draft for limited life, I admittedly didnt have any ideas for this design and might revise it later on... that's all for now next up who knows not me
Well, I didn't end up doing much drawing as I planned... but I won't miss Halloween! I've been drawing a 'abandoned' oc named Cyc almost every Halloween for a few years now.
Below is the finished drawing! Warnings: beheaded+blood
Im Galixye (or Martin if your boring /j) He/They. Just a autistic idiot on the Internet, here to look at art, post art. Might ramble a bit to archive my thoughts, like a diary but worse.
